I believe the formula for success is "win-win partnerships" and I've built my career and the growth of profitable companies on this. In 2010 I set-out to prove that a win for the environment and a win for business is not only possible but highly scalable. Cleantech company Fēnix Energy was created. Specializing in the delivery of Thermal Energy Assets, my team are driving a mission to create the greenest cities across North America one building and district at a time. Our unique Design – Build – Own – Operate business model leverages HVAC systems to create Utility-grade infrastructure that harvests, stores, and trades energy. Fēnix Energy’s success is amplified by our open approach to leadership. I believe in continuous education, transparent management, and releasing the potential of people by supporting innovation from within the team and from the ground-up. Our commitment to collaboration and long-term strategic partnerships has not only added to the scalability and reach of Fenix Energy’s solutions but also helped spread the undeniable truth that investing in renewables has a triple pay off – for society, the environment and the economy.
